Created attachment 477452 [details] screen recording showing cusror still shown on an invisible element Before iOS 26, focusing an invisible input element would NOT draw the cursor, but now the cursor is shown as if the input element is visible - always at opacity: 1. Chrome draws the cursor at the opacity of the input element. Here is a small codepen: https://codepen.io/Miodec/pen/ZYWXbqx Why am reporting this as an issue: I am the developer of a typing website called monkeytype.com. Monkeytype relies on an invisible input element that is shown below a virtual word list and virtual caret. Because the cursor of the real input element is still drawn, users are reporting double cursors when typing on ios devices.
